Harney 10-223
Multipaned windows, lap siding and a trio of low-profile gables give a friendly, open look to the Harney. This modestly sized home is economical to build and fits comfortably on a small lot.
It is equally well-suited to the needs of a young family, a single person or empty nesters wishing to reduce their maintenance chores. The plan could easily be adapted for wheelchair accessibility.
Family gathering spaces cluster together at the front, where a spacious vaulted great room/dining area wraps around a step-saving kitchen. Sunlight spills in on two sides of these naturally bright rooms. Double doors swing open to access a small side deck or patio, close enough to the kitchen to invite outdoor dining when temperatures are warm.
A wide bay window expands the kitchen, offering an excellent view of the street. Standing at the sink or stove, you can keep an eye on kids playing out front. There's plenty of counter space here too, enough for two cooks to work together on meals, cookies, or other culinary projects.
The two-car garage has a direct entry that puts you almost in the kitchen, particularly handy when carrying in groceries. A door at the rear leads to the back yard.
All three bedrooms are at the rear. Vaulting gives a sense of volume to the Harney's master suite, which boasts a large walk-in closet. The small private bathroom has twin vanities and a pocket door that allows enclosure of the shower and water closet.
Secondary bedrooms across the hallway share a bathroom with combination tub and shower. Utilities are centrally located, convenient to both kitchen and bedrooms.
